IF THE WORLD REALLY WANT DEMOCRACY IN MYANMAR

If
the World really want Democracy in Myanmar

Gaining
Democracy in Burma is the most expensive bargain in the World; from 1962
Burmese people have been giving their lives in hope that they could bring
justice and democracy in Burma. In 1988, after the nation-wide demonstration,
the dictators used the election to
crack down democratic movement, when election was over, they used constitution as their main tool to stop
democratic movement, after constitution, they conducted election according to
their wish, when Daw Aung San Su Kyi won by-election, they were afraid to lose
their power. China on the one side
invested in Arakan State for gas greedily, China does not want democracy in
Myanmar. On the other side, Rohingya is very sensitive for Awakyunetha Rakhine
Buddhists, the West haven’t finished War on Terror, so this time they used
Rohingya as their main tool; they tried a nation-wide religious conflict
creating a fake rape case, soon they announced everywhere, gave alert
everywhere that “ We are under attacked by Rohingya Islamic Terrorist”

In
Arakan Sate , there were no two groups’ fighting going on; Rakhine Buddhists ,
military, polices , and well trained Bagali Rakhine Buddhist called Awakyunetha
are showing their horrible attitude toward Islam and Muslims. Almost all the
medias are presenting the issue as two groups’ conflicts, it is absolutely
wrong. If government‘s media is right, then, they should allow the
international media to discover the reality.

The
massacre in Arakan State by Extremist
Terrorist Bengali Rakhine called Awakyunetha over the past two months has
caused disillusion for some, division among many, and shock and anguish for
everyone. Racial and religious tensions that have simmered just beneath the
surface for years have exploded into an ugly cycle of destruction and revenge
which threatens to derail Burma’s journey towards democracy and peace. Crude,
racist abuse, deliberate misrepresentations, doctored images, misinformation and
biased reporting of Awakyunetha Bengali
Buddhist Rakhine have added a cruel twist to an already bloody tragedy.

The
tragedy in Arakan State is that ordinary people from Rohingya communities have
suffered. Homes and Mosques were burned, women were raped, innocent unarmed
people including children and old men were killed – and for what purpose? It
has been claimed that as many as 10,000 people died, more than 160,000 people
are displaced as a result of the violence, although this figure is not verified
.One of the first things the government of Burma should do is enforcing
immigration laws to disperse illegal immigrants, Awakyunetha Rakhine Bangalis
entering Burma. Since Rakhine State was promoted to Rakhine Buddhists ,they
started torturing Rohingya; they are not allowed to attend the schools, their
children were not registered in order to deprive national rights in future,
they were restricted to move one place to another, their national identity cards were teared up using several operations by the Rakhine
Immigrations .

I would like to appeal to the
governments around the world and international media to focus on Rohingya
issue internationally and to save
Rohingya people for the sake of humanity.
Firstly, I would like to appeal for
human conscience on the grounds of humanity and human rights. The Universal
Declaration of Human Rights is exactly universal, for everyone. As Daw Aung San Suu
Kyi said in her Nobel Peace Prize Lecture , human rights are “the birthright of
all”. No human being should be degraded, restricted or abused in the way, the
people of Burma have been by the military regime for so long and that includes
Rohingya.

Secondly, I would like to appeal on
religious grounds. From my understanding, being human is much more valuable
than believing in a religion; if there is no human ,who will follow the
religion. Awakyunetha Rakhine authority
and Burmese dictators have been killing
Rohingya people in a such inhuman way that after one year, I think ,there
will be no Rohingya in Burmese ground.

Lastly, if simple humanity, basic human rights and core religious teachings
cannot persuade people to exercise love, tolerance, respect and peace, to
safeguard equal rights for all, then I would appeal on grounds of
self-interest.

If what I have said so far has not upset some, what I am about to say will
upset others, but I must say it anyway. The Awakyunetha Rakhine Buddhist people
are among the most Extremists and Radical people I have ever come across. There
are 17 towns in the Arakan State; in every town , there are Muslims villages
and Quarters except Taunguk . Rakhine Buddhist called that place as Muslim-free
place. Not only in Arakan state but also in Yangon too, there are Muslim-free
Quarters such as Kyaukmaung, if you are Muslim , you can’t buy a flat even you
give more than actual price. We know the situations of only five towns, the
rest we don’t know because of bad communication. The dead list does not include
those towns. The Rohingya people are among the most hospitable, kind, gentle,
decent, tolerant, peace-loving human beings but most of them are uneducated
because of persecution.

Since Awakyuntha Rakhine ‘terrorist’ are
massacring Rohingyas without any foundation or substance but fuelled by racist
extremists and greediness, it could be a self-fulfilling prophecy. If the Rohingya
are persecuted by the regime, marginalized by the Burmese media, discriminated
against and attacked by Buddhist society and ignored by the international media,
Rohingya’s death toll will be like Rwanda. As Aung San Suu Kyi said in
Oslo, “War is not the only arena where peace is done to death. Wherever
suffering is ignored, there will be the seeds of conflict, for suffering
degrades and embitters and enrages.”

Now
I would like to show you some of Rakhine Bangali Awakyunetha’s attitude toward
Islam and Muslims. Could you please let me show you some pictures which are
uncivilized but to solve the problem, you should keep in mind their attitude.

6.Not only in the online WebPages, they have
been insulting Muslims and Islam but also
in daily newspapers, journals, magazines, and books too, you could find such
usage.

7.The policies which the regime uses against
Muslims and Islam are to make the Buddhist happy and get their support only.

8. I have read a lot of Buddhist religious books;
I haven’t seen any kind of hatred in their books except Awakyunetha Rakhine
Buddhists’. Not only in Myanmar but also in aboard, Awakyunetha like Dr. Aye
Chan have been writing against Islam and Muslims.

Dr. Aye Chan called Rohingya
people “Influx Viruses” in his book.

9. Government have been clearing Muslim history
and Muslim historical Mosques.

The Arakanese Kings with Muslim names and
titles

According to former Chairman of Historical Commission, Burma, Lt.
Col. Ba Shin’s “Coming of Islam to Burma 1700 AD”, Min Sawmon as Solaiman Shah,
the founder of Mrauk-U dynasty and his successor were greatly influenced by
Islamic culture. The practice of adopting a Muslim name or title by the
Arakanese kings continued for more than two hundred years (1430 – 1638). This
titles which appeared in Arabic script / Persian Kufic on their coins is given
below:

(Stone
stucture Majah Pali (a) Musa Pali Mosque, construcred by an Indian missionary
Musa in the time of 9th king of Mrauk_U 1513-1515 A.D. It stands Maungthagon
Village, Mrauk-U. It was demolished by military in about 1983.)

An ancient Kadi Mosque in Paike-thae village, Kyauktaw, found in
14th Century AD

This is a picture of Akyab’s ancient Mosque, Badar Makam. It was
built 1727 A.D ,hundred years before the building of city. Akyab was built as
city and district in 1826 A.D when British conquered Arakan.

Buddhist Rakhine changed Mehrab and Member of Mosque as a worship
house. They put idols there.

If the world really wants democracy in
Myanmar, the world should give pressure on China .Whoever died in Arakan State,
Chinese Government, Myanmar Government, and Awakyunetha Rakhine like Dr. Aye
Maung are responsible for those dead. Because of their selfish desires,
innocent people are dying, suffering, and starving. They played this game to
suffocate Daw Aung San Su Kyi’s neck.

The
Whole Muslims World should pressure on China, if they really want to save
Islam’s dignity and Rohingya’s lives. Muslims World has two options; be tolerated
and let Rohingya people die, and pressure on China as soon as possible.

It
is the time for International Community to interfere in Myanmar democratic
movement and support democratic groups spiritually as well as politically.
Otherwise, Myanmar will be the worse dictatorship in the world in the name of
democracy.
